In the Silver Elf Pantheon, Ariel's position was actually higher than her own God's? When he heard this, Rorschach was first surprised. Then, he pondered for a moment before nodding his head in agreement.
Descenders having a higher position than the Gods might sound absurd, but when looking at it from the perspective of the relationships between Pantheons, it was understandable.
Let's take the corporate system on Earth as an example.
Descenders were high-ranking employees, while the Gods were the owners and chairmen of the company. Under normal circumstances, the Gods had a higher position, and they even had control over the livelihood and life of the employees.
But what if this company was only a subsidiary company of a larger company?
Then, the highest authority was actually in the hands of the parent company. Even the leader of a subsidiary company was only a slightly more important high-ranking employee. When a subordinate employee was outstanding enough to attract the attention of the higher-ups of the parent company, his position in the entire system would be even higher. This was understandable.
Returning to the main topic, the Silver Elf Pantheon was probably the same. The Silver Elf War God was only one of the new Gods in the system, and he wasn't the Divine King. Then, even if he nurtured a Descender with great potential and strength, and the Divine King in the system took a fancy to him, he could only give him up. At most, the higher-ups would give him some compensation.
"Ariel wasn't nurtured by the Silver Elf War God. She is a predetermined seed of the entire Silver Elf Pantheon. Now, she is under the command of the Silver Elf God of Poetry, Sorsolian. When she fully matures, she will probably become a direct descender of the Silver Elf Divine King."
Then, it was understandable that the most important participant of the third round was Ariel's May Rain Society, and not the Silver Elf War God's own faction.
"Since 'my' God Equipment is involved, then it is only natural for my people to participate in the battle."
If Ariel, who had a rather high position in the Silver Elf Pantheon, said so, with the support of a God who favored her, what could the Silver Elf War God say?
At this moment, Rorschach finally understood that the Silver Elf War God, who seemed to have limitless glory, actually had many troubles of his own.
He had to hand over his spoils of war, and the talents he nurtured weren't his own. Even the life and death battles that would decide his own interests had to be fought by outsiders.
But when he thought about it carefully, that was how it should be.
You enjoyed the resources of the divine system and became a member of the divine system. Naturally, you had to pay a corresponding price. Rights and obligations were usually equal.
Many of those subsidiary companies were funded and built by the parent company. For a new God like the Silver Elf War God, when he descended, he probably received the entire race's resources and help. His growth speed wasn't something a new God's Church like the Game Church could compare with.
When the Game Church was building ships, they lacked professionals, resources, and ports. The Silver Elf War God had the help of his race and God System, so he probably didn't lack anything.
On the other hand, even though the Game Church lacked everything, it had its own advantages.
[No matter how difficult it is, as long as we make it with our own hands and get it, it's ours. We don't need to wag our tails and beg for mercy, and we don't need to worry about the bosses above us being in a bad mood and asking us to sacrifice ourselves for the overall benefit of the entire divine system. Heh, sacrifice? What a nice phrase, but for whom? Is there really a need to sacrifice?]
Rorschach finally understood why Lori insisted on only hanging on to the periphery of the Natural God System despite her relationship with "Diligent" Rosa. She also had a trading relationship with the Gods in the Natural God System. She didn't want to become a so-called seeded player and directly ask for all kinds of resources and help to reach the top in one step.
[Free things are the most expensive. The only good thing is going downhill. We have to rely on our own strength to reach the top of the world. We can't rely on the charity of others.]
There was no impassioned declaration, nor was there any great ambition. She just didn't want to be restricted by others, so she decided to willfully and painstakingly walk her own path. But this was the Lori that Rorschach knew.
"I'll help you …"
[Wrong. Brother, if you say that again, I'll really get angry.]
Rorschach paused and then realized that he had indeed said something wrong.
"Oh, yes. Let's achieve this goal together and control our own destiny and future. I've had enough of not being able to control my own life and being manipulated by others. In this damned place, even living well and doing what you want to do requires enough power to support yourself. Those bastard parents of mine disappeared and even left behind so much trouble for us. "
Rorschach gave a calm reply. At the same time, for the first time ever, he expressed his dissatisfaction and unease.
Over the past few months, his life had taken a 180-degree turn. His parents had disappeared for several years, and even his younger sister was in a half-dead state. His life was constantly in danger, and he worked hard every day to increase his chances of survival. Did he not feel dissatisfied? How was that possible?
[Brother, I'm sorry …]
"We're siblings. What's the point of saying all this? You're doing this for my own good. If I were still on Earth, I would probably be dead already."
Family was always a single entity. That was all there was to say. Neither brother nor sister were the type to be sad. They just needed to set a goal and continue working hard … No, it was enough to just continue living according to the way they chose.
"Grandmaster, Teacher Adeline, Su Nanna … It seems that we already owe many favors. Isabella? Who's that? Do I know her? "
Rorschach couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of his "little friends." At the very least, life wasn't completely devoid of fun. Even though his family was temporarily gone, he still had new friends.
Rorschach, who was smiling, faintly emitted a blue flame on his body. With a flash of light, he relaxed his body and mind. Unknowingly, he removed the shackles on his heart and reached the realm where his heart and body became one.
The anxiety and unease in his heart had always been restricting him. Now that he relaxed his body and mind, he went with the flow and cultivated his Ki that was stuck at a bottleneck. Rorschach's path of cultivation as a rank 2 martial monk and Enlightener was finally complete.
Rorschach silently looked at his hands and silently made a promise.
